NieR Automata v1.1a #18 — Heal It With Fire
August 9th, 2024
Give it a chance. It might help.
Impressions:
Pretty uneventful episode, and largely a re-do of the first time through Pascal's village, but this time with A2 nonstop yelling at them. Frankly, I'm with Team Set-Her-On-Fire and see if that improves her attitude. Also, how exactly did she get to the resistance camp? Did they push her in a wheelbarrow over there in her sleep? Just dumped her on their doorstep with the what's-it needed to fix her but not do it themselves? That was quite a bit of a smash cut to all of a sudden we're miles away, in a completely different biome, and everything has been fixed using stuff from where we were before.
But of course, the main focus of the episode was the fanservice. Mainly how many shots of A2's disturbingly rigid chest they could get in, but also how close to her permanently blushing face and excessively applied eye-shadow. The shot near the end where they panned across her entire body was certainly a way to recap the most important part of the episode. Upskirts and goth miniskirts are out. Glistening lips, perky chests, and skintight leotards are in.

The anime might be more sexist than the game?
